'yes I think it's the ultimate ambition for some of us here - to have a vineyard of our own hehehe...but since practicality is staring us in the face regarding this one, I'd settle for working na lang in a vineyard - say, a grape picker Quote Link to comment

missmanners Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 magnum's a good idea. although i would prefer to go there on a weeknight instead of a weekend. the weekend greenbelt crowd leaves much to be desired. so sure. nuvo's good as well. let me know. Quote Link to comment

bods1000 Posted May 23, 2005 Author Share Posted May 23, 2005 (edited) sorry double post - board acting up again pareng masi - can you enlighten us on these wine flights? Edited May 23, 2005 by bods1000 Quote Link to comment
masi Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 sorry double post - board acting up again pareng masi - can you enlighten us on these wine flights?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> basically its a sampling of different wines but it could be modified to a single variety of grape of different wine makers or regions. i haven't tried flights here in magnum yet though... maybe it's worth a try for the eb. am ok except on weekends (Sat/Sun)... especially early evening.
